Keep It Short and Sweet
Whether it’s from you and your partner, your family, or your entire group of close friends, a heartfelt holiday message of love and adoration never goes out of style. Simple, short holiday messages provide a sweet sentiment for family and friends at this special time of the year.

“Wishing you a magical Christmas full of sweet surprises!”
“Wishing you the best during the holiday season. With lots of love and cheer.”
“Cheers to the most wonderful time of the year!”
Include a Thoughtful Memory
When you think back to the fond memories of your friendship or family relationship, there are likely plenty of moments you could use as inspiration for a truly meaningful holiday message. Share one of these experiences in your card. It doesn’t need to be something big or memorable, as even the tiniest of moments can have the biggest of impacts.
Here’s an example:
“Remember the time when we sipped hot coco and ate cookies while watching Elf on Christmas Eve? That was one of my favorite memories. Wishing you all the holiday joy this season.”
Get Creative
It’s also a great idea to try something different this holiday season and be do something original. Get a group of friends together and take a funny, silly, or creative holiday photo. Add it to your greeting card. This could be just the thing to cheer up your friends and family.
You could also opt to give a thoughtful gift with your card, such as a hand-written note or poem or a voucher for a particular event or activity. It doesn’t need to be something expensive or over-the-top—anything thoughtful will make a great impression.
Finally, don’t forget to add your own holiday wishes. Go simple or get creative; you know best what your loved ones would want to hear. Reach out with your best wishes and end with a warm holiday greeting. Make it truly heartfelt, and make sure it reflects how much you care this season.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
